Exploring Our Five Senses in Nursery!

This week in Nursery, we’ve been on a sensory adventure as we explored our five senses. We read Lucy’s Picture, and just like Lucy, the children made their own collages using a variety of materials, thinking carefully about how things feel and look. Using magnifying glasses, we closely examined natural objects like leaves, stones, and pinecones. The children enjoyed describing the textures they felt, rough, smooth, bumpy, and soft! Ice was a big hit! We explored how it feels, looks, and how it changes when we add warm water. The children used words like “cold,” “slippery,” and “melty” as they observed and touched the ice. There was lots of excitement as we tried popping candy! We used our ears to hear the crackling sounds, our noses to smell the sweet scent, and our tongues to taste the fizzing sensation. We also explored jelly beans using our senses of touch, sight, and taste. The children loved guessing the flavours and describing the colours and textures.
